Optical phonons with a negative oscillator strength

The nature of additional (redundant from the point of view of selection rules) optical phonons observed in most crystals with ion—covalent bonds between atoms, in particular, in their solid solutions, is discussed. These 'redundant' phonons are located in the frequency region of the longitudinal—transverse splitting of fundamental phonons, where the real part of the crystal permittivity is negative. They are also split by a crystal field into transverse and longitudinal phonons, the frequencies of redundant longitudinal phonons being lower than those of redundant transverse phonons, and the oscillator strength of these phonons proves to be negative.
